Summary:
Current life we are facing a lots of fact of violence, media is full of news about violence in
Europe and around the world. The Europe becoming less and less safe place to live. Many of
the violence are based of prejudices and facts of violence creates new prejudices, which
affects young people in our community. We strongly believe that young people have the
power to break prejudice, promote non–violent actions and become ambassadors of peace.
We decided to promote this project because different forms of conflicts are often closely
interrelated, young people affected by conflicts whether on international, national or on local
level very often develop xenophobic and racist attitudes that can lead to aggression and
violence towards other ethnicity, people of other nationalities, or just any type of minorities.
Simply, chauvinism, racism and discrimination combined with violence and life threatening
acts towards minority groups create the need to look for effective strategies to address
issues of conflict and violence among young people. This violence is often directed against
refugees who fled to Europe. Extreme right­wing or national conservative groups in many
European countries want to prevent a multi­ethnic society.
